Mehar, a young bride in rural 1929 Punjab, is trying to discover the
identity of her new husband. She and her sisters-in-law, married to
three brothers in a single ceremony, spend their days hard at work in
the family's 'china room', sequestered from contact with the men. When
Mehar develops a theory as to which of them is hers, a passion is
ignited that will put more than one life at risk.
Spiralling around Mehar's story is that of a young man who in 1999
travels from England to the now-deserted farm, its 'china room' locked
and barred. In enforced flight from the traumas of his adolescence -
his experiences of addiction, racism, and estrangement from the culture
of his birth - he spends a summer in painful contemplation and
recovery, before finally finding the strength to return 'home'.
